EFFECTS OF DISCONNECTING
Disconnecting the battery can affect a
number of vehicle systems, especially if
there is insufficient battery power before
disconnection. For example, the alarm
may trigger, depending on its state, when
the battery was disconnected. If the alarm
does sound, use the Smart key in the
normal way to disarm the security system.
The windows may need recalibrating to
operate correctly.
BATTERY MONITORING SYSTEM
The Intelligent Power System
Management (IPSM) continuously monitors
the condition of the main vehicle battery.
If excessive battery discharge occurs, the
system will begin to shut down
non-essential electrical systems in order
to protect the battery.
If the IPSM calculates that the battery's
condition is not within the set parameters,
there are 2 levels of action which can be
taken. Both levels have an accompanying
message on the Touch screen, and in the
case of the low battery warning, in the
Message centre.
